Like most of you, I watched it because Colin Firth was in it. Totally predictable but a few worthwhile moments.

Very typical chick flick, easy to watch, light entertainment, not great, but not bad either. Not one of Colin Firths best movies though.

Yeah. Like the plot says. It's nothing fantastic. It's not awful either. Don't put it at the top of the list but you could do worse. Not all that funny but a nice story nonetheless.

Completely predictable. I'm surprised at the two, usually discerning, main actors taking this on. What a waste of everybody's time.

Wow so awful it has to be seen to be believed. Even the better half who is crazy about romantic comedies/romantic dramas, turned off after half an hour.

Typical romantic comedy. Predictable, but still great. Good storyline and some funny bits. I liked it.

After reading other reviews I was not sure about this movie BUT I was pleasantly surprised, we really enjoyed it, nothing to rave about or out of the ordinary just a pleasant, easy to watch movie. Colin Firth always brings class to his movies and the more I see of Jeffery Dean Morgan (from PS I Love You) the more I enjoy him in these romantic comedies after seeing him as Sam

Uma! What were you thinking, girl?? Like the polar opposite of "The Truth about Cats and Dogs"??? soooo cheeesy and frustrating! Stinker! No, REALLY, Uma's done MUCH better than this one! Give this one a HUGE heave-ho!

ok so it's completely far-fetched and silly- and yet really enjoyable.

The plot was completely predictable. Not too bad for a light entertainment, maybe a bit of wine to wash the story down. The trailer has all the good bits, so if you wanna save time just watch the trailer.

light movie which was very enjoyable. with Colin Firth and Jeffery Morgan why would it not be?? Uma Thurman was a nice surprise in her role,no action kick butt role but very good in light humorous one. No accademy award wiinning script but a very delightful afternoon spent watching this one.
